by Joyce Meyer
Now to Him Who, by (in consequence of) the [action
of His] power that is at work within us, is able to [carry out His purpose and]
do superabundantly, far over and above all that we [dare] ask or think
[infinitely beyond our highest prayers, desires, thoughts, hopes, or dreams].
—Ephesians 3:20
—Ephesians 3:20
When the things we are facing in our lives loom so
big in our eyes that our mind goes “tilt,” we need to think in the spirit. In
the natural, many things are impossible. But in the supernatural, spiritual
realm, with God nothing is impossible. God wants us to believe for great
things, make big plans, and expect Him to do things so great it leaves us with
our mouths hanging open in awe. James 4:2 tells us we have not because we ask
not! We can be bold in our asking.
Sometimes in my meetings people will approach the
altar for prayer and sheepishly ask if they can request two things. I tell them
they can ask God for all they want to, as long as they trust Him to do it His
way, in His timing.
When you pray, do it standing up on the inside.
What I mean is, do it respectfully, yet aggressively and boldly. Recall that
God said He is the Almighty God (Genesis 17:1); in other words, “more than
enough.”
Lord, open my spiritual eyes to see what it means
to pray to the Almighty God who is “more than enough.” I come humbly and boldly
with expectancy of great things. Amen.
